Wheat Free Old Bay–Style Seasoning Blend
Spice blends seem simple until you flip over a store-bought tin and spot a "processed in a facility with wheat" warning — which happens more often than you'd expect with seasoning mixes. This homemade blend sidesteps all of that by using nothing but pure dried herbs and spices, every single one naturally free of gluten and wheat. The combination of celery salt, turmeric, ginger, thyme, oregano, and basil creates that warm, savory, slightly briny depth you'd expect from a classic seafood-style seasoning. A whisper of Ceylon cinnamon rounds out the heat without overpowering, and the optional ground cloves add a subtle complexity that makes the blend feel genuinely special. The whole thing comes together in one bowl with just a whisk — no cooking, no fuss. Stored in an airtight jar, it stays fresh for up to three months, so you can shake it over shrimp, roasted vegetables, popcorn, or anything else that needs a bold, aromatic lift.
